Emptying the Dust Cup Assembly

Assembly after each use; empty sev-
eral times during prolonged usage.
Or empty the Dust Cup Assembly
when it reaches the MAX fill line;
NEVER OVER-FILL THE DUST
CUP.
Stand vacuum into upright position.
Turn vacuum off.
To empty the Dust Cup Assembly:
1 Grip carry handle and press
the Dust Cup release button to
remove Dust Cup Assembly
2 Option A:forQuickEmpty:
Insert Dust Cup Assembly deep
inside trash receptacle to contain
dust and debris.
Press the Dust Cup Door release
button; tap container gently to
dislodge and release dust and
debris.
Snap door in place.
Important: If the Dust Cup
Door does not swing open after
pressing the release button,
push the door open using the
bottom door tabs.
CAUTION:
Unplug the vacuum; failure to do so
might result in electric shock.
3 Option B: For Allergy Sufferers:
Wrap a trash bag around the Dust
Cup Assembly leaving space at
the bottom for the door to swing
open.
Locate the Dust Cup Door
release button within the trash
bag and press to release as you
shake the dust cup to empty
dust and debris.
Snap the bottom door in place.
Note: Option B can also be
performed outside of the home
to further minimize releasing
dust back into the air. Carry just
the Dust Cup Assembly and trash
bag outside.
Note: Some dust and debris
may remain in the top of your
dust cup assembly on or near
the metal screen. It is not
necessary to completely remove
this material before continuing
to vacuum; Shark® advanced
cyclonic action will sweep the
metal screen clean once you
begin to refill your dust cup.
12 3
9www.sharkclean.com
1 Cleaning the Cyclonic Chamber:
Option A:QuickEmpty
Press the Cyclonic Chamber release button at the top of the Dust Cup
Assembly and lift open the Dust Cup lid.
Remove the Cyclonic Chamber from the Dust Cup Assembly.
Insert the Cyclonic Chamber deep inside trash receptacle to contain dust.
Press the Cyclonic Chamber Release Button to open and remove the
bottom door.
Tap clean the open Cyclonic Chamber to release dust and then attach
and close bottom door.
Important: Be careful not to damage the metal screen on the bottom
of the Cyclonic Chamber when emptying. Tearing or changing the shape
of this screen may disrupt the advanced cyclonic action and decrease the
performance of your Dust Cup – requiring more frequent emptying of the
Cyclonic Chamber.
Return Cyclonic Chamber to Dust Cup Assembly and close Dust Cup lid.
DO NOT operate your vacuum without the Cyclonic Chamber in place.
Doing so would require more frequent washing of the foam filers, and
could decrease the life of your vacuum.
Option B: Allergy Sufferers
Carry the Dust Cup Assembly and a trash bag outside of your home.
Follow the instructions above for Option A, but instead of inserting
Cyclonic Chamber into a trash receptacle wrap the trash bag around the
Cyclonic Chamber.
2 Washing the Foam and Felt Filters:
Remove the Foam and the Felt Filters from the Filter Holder.
Rinse in lukewarm water until the water runs clear.
Squeeze filters and let air dry for 24 hours before replacing; do not
use hair dryer or other heating methods to dry. Insert the included
replacement filters while others are drying.
DO NOT operate the vacuum without ALL the filters in place.
DO NOT operate the vacuum with WET filters.
Note: Your 2 white foams and other filters will discolor over time; this is
normal and will not affect the performance of the filters.
Note: It is NOT recommended to rinse the woven exhaust filter located
on the front of the unit. This filter will continue to last the lifetime of your
vacuum.
To order additional parts and accessories, go to www.sharkclean.com
or call 1-800-798-7398.
For proper care, consult the table
to the right for the maintenance
schedule of your Cyclonic Chamber
and Filters.
